This past week I was fighting with my husband about 'that issue' -- you know, the one that will probably always be an issue (we all have them, right?). I was really, really angry and resentful and my emotions were running in unproductive circles. I was not the person that I enjoy being.

I eventually had to step back and ask myself: What would help? What would help me stop being angry? 

Immediate clarity.
Immediate ability to ask for what I need.

I have to say, I am beyond proud that Michael & I made our biggest breakthrough on this issue in at least 5 years. Now that's a huge win... and it all started with a simple question.

As usual, asking great questions is an underrated skill.
